The same story later will be for Orange, T-Mobile, O2 and others. So customer base for OVI will be shrinking (i mean potential customer base)
I've criticized Ovi for needless failures myself but Nokia still has a chance to make it succeed-- although the window is quickly getting smaller.

The best way to make it happen (after fixing embarassing flaws, which is actually taking place) is to make the service so damned attarctive that customers loudly demand it from their providers. But of course success is more up to Nokia's execution than anything... so far not so good.
